Well the folks that know me and who have to put up with me on the local meets will tell you i've been on about this one for a while. well tonight i finally orderd the parts needed and found some brakes. Excuse the modern content by someone may be interested.

Frame: Van Nicholas Zion 18"

Fork: On One Carbon ( the only carbon one with no weight limit for my pie loving arse)

Did you weight the frame pre build up? it looks really nice, but I never understood the rigid fork thingy? Seems pretty limiting to such a capable frame set really? Why not just go for a nice light short travel fork?

Wold, Cause i'm in Suffolk and my other rides a P7 with 140 Vanillas on it. The idea is to have something that forces me to think about my line choices and ride with a bit of finess, thus making my local trails a different kettle of fish to my other bike that just feels overkill sometimes.

lookin sweet cant wait to give it a go, rigid carbon forks as used by those in the know got a set for my giant xtc alliance and my xtc full carbon (project race light race fast) good choice my man cool beans

I can see the benefits for smooth not too hilly trail riding, but up here, either your wrists or the forks would snap pretty quickly and you would be doing a lot of pushing up hills too with those gears!
